Therapy in Bristol and Bath - which therapy?.
"When the only tool you have is a hammer, every problem looks like a nail!"
I use a varied approach to your therapy. Hypnotherapy for Life offers more than "just" a hypnotherapy treatment. It's important that you choose a therapy and a therapist that feels right for you. With years of experience and ongoing training I incorporate many different approaches including techniques used in CBT, Psychotherapy, Analysis, NLP, and Solution Focused Brief Therapy. I recognise that different difficulties need different approaches and we pick the best fit for you together. To understand how these approaches work we have categorised the types of therapy available for your ease of understanding.

Hypnoanalysis- Analytical Therapy uses free association and regression to locate the root cause of problems, release the carried emotional burden, and resolve any associated issues. With hypnoanalysis, we use hypnosis to help you attain a state where you can clearly explore your own history in order to clear and release past anxieties. Very simply, this is a therapy which focuses on the past, whilst the other therapies available focus on the future and the present. As a general rule I will use solution focused therapies for most difficulties, but as a trained hypnoanalyst I offer hypnoanalysis for people who may wish to explore a deeper understanding and re-framing of their personal history.

Solution
Focused Therapy/NLP/CBT- Solution
Focused Therapy focuses on empowerment in the present. It is a modern and
forward focused therapy, which concentrates in a practical way on
strengthening the positive aspects of your life. It's aim is to help you
discover those areas of your life which are not working and to provide you
with the tools and resources you need to regain control and empowerment to
achieve the things you want to achieve. Solution based
therapy uses emotive
hypnotic suggestions, active imagination, metaphor, and modern
psychotherapeutic techniques, including practical applications of NLP to create new highly positive instructions
for life, at both a conscious and subconscious level. For a more detailed description of SFBT please click here |

Suggestion Therapy is a traditional treatment which differs from Solution Based Therapy in that it usually focuses on a single issue such as smoking, weight loss, nail-biting, exam worries, performance enhancement, or confidence boosting. Occasionally the subconscious mind will create resistance in a single area, such as during public presentations or perhaps for a driving test. Suggestion therapy can be enormously helpful in restoring confidence, determination, and focus, so that the desired outcome of a situation can be easily achieved. As with all hypnotherapy, when the conscious and subconscious minds are in agreement, even the most difficult of tasks become much easier! For a more detailed description please click here |
